New Features

Added support for SparkScan. This feature is currently in beta, and may still change significantly in the next releases.
SparkScan has been expanded with a range of new features and improvements:
- Introduced a smart battery management to lower the energy consumption and increase the up-time of the device. In our tests (repeatedly scanning a sequence of 5 different labels mimicking the user movement), this led to an improvement of up to 15% in battery life
- Added a gesture to collapse the trigger button with a swipe from the setting toolbar to the edge of the screen
- The setting toolbar icons have been slightly redesigned and grouped in categories
- Added contextual messages within the trigger button, called toasts, to guide the user while interacting with the UI. SparkScan offers a series of built-in messages, but custom messages can be shown by using the method SparkScanView.showToast(). For more information, check SparkScanToastSettings.
Added support for Symbology.upu4State.

AamvaBarcodeVerifier now performs document verification entirely on-device. However, to use it, an additional artifact is now required. Check documentation for details.
For ID cards issued by the United Arab Emirates data parsed from the Machine Readable Zone (MRZ) is now returned automatically when IdDocumentType.idCardViz and SupportedSides.frontAndBack are selected.
